Never Give an Inch -- Especially to Bald-Faced Bullshit . . . .

There are times when you just have to take a very measured, deep breath and let loose an uproarious guffaw of laughter at these fucking people, even when it's about very serious, troubled subject matter.

Observe:

Kellyanne Conway ran to the welcoming arms of “Fox & Friends” this morning, where she complained about the media coverage on the day of the Steve Scalise shooting.

In a curious bit of faux introspection, she gave a seemingly heartfelt little speech that basically exempted herself and the Trump administration from contributing to the national atmosphere of simmering violence.

"I would really ask people to think about the hateful rhetoric," she said. She then proceeded to accuse Nancy Pelosi of "pointing the finger already."

"I do think some people are unloading their shame and guilt in the call for toning down the toxicity and the rhetoric," she said in a classic example of projection.

“I went back and looked at exactly what was being discussed on all the TV shows, except yours, at 7:09 a.m. on Wednesday, when this happened, and it’s a really curious exercise."

"Because as Steve Scalise was fighting for his life and crawling into right field in a trail of blood, you should go back and see what people were saying about the president and Republicans at that very moment.”

“Of course, they had to break in with the news of this tragedy, and since then there’s been some introspection — some quieter, more muted voices toning down the rhetoric.”

“But look at Twitter,” she said.

“If I was shot and killed tomorrow, half of Twitter would explode in applause and excitement. This is the world we live in now.”

"You can't attack people personally and think tragedies like this won't happen."

First of all dear Kellyanne, you flatter yourself a might too much to be actually believing that "half " of Twitter users are so closely following your decrepit life as a Drumpf fluffer that they would give a shit what happens to you. Umm let's see, there's 328 million Twitter accounts, divided in half equals 164 million which would mean that there are 164 million people in the world who Kellyanne Conway fancies are pining to see her untimely and violent demise.

That was the least offensive part of her vomitous statement.

She also had the unmitigated fucking gall to state, "You can't attack people personally and think tragedies like this won't happen."

OMFG. Did she really go there? Did she? Did she really mouth those hypocritical words??

Good lord.

Where was Kellyanne's pious and concerned opinionizing when fake news (real fucking fake news) about Hillary Clinton purportedly running a child sex ring out of the basement of a Washington D.C. pizza parlor actually incited a right-wing nut job to go to that pizza parlor armed with an assault rifle and shoot up the fucking place looking for the crimes?

No -- you're not going to get away with that bullshit Kellyanne. Your paymaster himself rode the coattails of his supporters violent tendencies and hatefulness right in to the White House and as far as The Gadfly is concerned, your phony fainting spell about violent rhetoric in our political discourse is pretty much worth this:
